I'm a suspension freak , so I would suggest tires, coilovers, breaks, etc. Brand wise, I'm not sure. That's really up to you, and what you like. Its all about preference.



I like bronze wheels, I would leave them alone. They look good.

Silver just more in my budget, lol. have deal with emissions so idk yet..

most likely just buy new 7afe and build it performance.



have 7afe right now. tune it for boost, currently making around 130 whp..swaping back to oem headers in intake tomorrow. get new tires Falken.



plan to get new kyb shocks and redo my exhaust to 2.25..just call it a day.

The suspension is fantastic! It handles good and shocks help with any bumps in the road..My rear fenders rolled. no rubbing



took few pix today at the mall..
